American Veterans Center

Since then, the American Veterans Center has seen significant growth and has produced and sponsored numerous events and panels including the 2008 rededication of "Trimble Field" at Yona, Guam, in honor of Jimmie Trimble (James Thimble III), a Marine who was killed during the Battle of Iwo Jima after he had served on Guam and played baseball there as a star pitcher for the 3rd Marine Division (in 1944, Guam became the baseball hub in the Pacific for morale building during the war):[3][4] The National Memorial Day Parade[5] is co-produced by the American Veterans Center and Music Celebrations International, and is held annually in Washington, D.C., every Memorial Day since 2005.

Ever since the American Veterans Center and Music Celebrations International started the National Memorial Day Parade, it has quickly become an event for the entire country and a major parade, which draws mainstream media attention and Hollywood stars to participate in honoring those who have died in American military service.

The parade includes nearly 200 elements, including Government nominated marching bands, active duty and retired military units of the Armed Forces, youth groups (youth uniformed organizations inclusive), parade floats, celebrities, VIP's, as well as hundreds of veterans from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom, together with veterans' organizations, both local and foreign, and support organizations for military families.

The parade is also streamed to American Forces and Service Members stationed around the world both on Youtube and the official website of the AVC.

The American Veterans Center is involved in several different forms of media and outreach; this includes Radio, Television, Video, and Print.

Many of the American Veterans Center's events are broadcast live on television and covered by national print and online media.
